Zürcher Spielzeugmuseum, Toy museum in Zürich, Switzerland
The Zürcher Spielzeugmuseum exhibits more than 1500 toys and games, including dolls, board games, and animated pieces from different historical periods.
The museum preserves a collection initiated by Franz Carl Weber, a Swiss toy merchant, showcasing toys and games spanning three centuries of childhood entertainment.
The dollhouses within the museum present detailed representations of domestic life from the 18th to 20th centuries, complete with miniature kitchens and metalware.
